h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Dear Alien:

It seems to me the station could use a convenience store. Sort of like a 7-11, except mine would be a 24-7.

Would you have a spot available for such an enterprise?

Captitalisticly yours,

WM

Dear WM:

It seems to me that such an enterprise on the station would be very useful, too... I think a perfect spot for it would be on the "main street" where the employment agency & rental offices are, and the Chesire Grin of course... You can freely choose the rooms you find being strategically best... Tell me when you've moved in and when you're planning to open!

(oh, and being so alien this poor Alien didn't quite understand those numbers...?)

I'll get right on it!

In the mean time, check this out for an explanation of the numbers:

My place will be a 24-Seven because it will be open around the clock. And I'll definitely have a Slerpee machine like this:

I'll set it up as a guide entry from my home page, if that's okay with you.

I kind of thought the numbers were opening hours but couldn't figure out where the seven in 24-7 comes from... Still can't...

But anyway, just post the address of the entry when you've done with it - completely fine that way...

24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Ahhh... D'Oh!!

Here's the address:

It's not quite ready, yet. But soon,hopefully. The guys at Crater Labs Inc. were a little distracted yesterday with an ambush, so they didn't get a lot done on my equipment order.

I was particularly distracted by that ambush, as I am now lying in a small crater outside the CLI complex, bound head to toe with duct tape and vowing never to mees with the CoTB again.



But enough about that...

*updates the front page*

Okie-dokie... The doors are open for business. Please stop by for the grand opening.

Erm, please don't forget to put the 24-Seven on the Space Centre page. Thanks.

*is pretty sure it's been there for a while already*

Are we talking about the same place?

*Immediately after posting the last one notices that in fact it hasn't been added, and gets very embarrased. While wondering what happened when she thought she updated the page, goes v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y due to connection problems to the edit-screen and makes sure it now gets updated.*

Thanks so much. I'm a real coding amateur, myself. You should have seen me tearing my hair out trying to get my graphics to work!

Ooops... the link you put in on the 24-7 goes back to the space centre page. It should go to A401239. Could I get you to try one more time?

*after being offline for a while goes now happily to update the page with normal-speed connection*

Should be right now!

Hooray!

Thanks again. Now I'm going back to Celery's party. See ya there.
